in many of the modules i've download there has been repeats of a certain pattern number, for example let's use '6' it may go something like 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,6,8,6... the sixth pattern is in there three times.

i cannot figure out how to do that myself, i cannot copy and paste without creating new pattern first, hence making the next number in sequence instead of the same number, for example, i have 10 patterns and i want number 4 to go again after the 10th but all i can figure out how to do is create an 11th and copy the stuff in the pattern #4, but that still is number 11 instead of number 4 going again... what do i need to do to make number 4 go again after 10 instead of copying info from 4 to 11?

Why copy and paste when you can just write the number of you pattern where you want in the sequense.

Either write the number yourself, or choose right-mouse, insert pattern while selecting the pattern of choice.

I don't know what you guys mean by "write the number yourself"

Well, write the number... into the orderlist? Big surprise, the cells in the order list are editable, and you can just write f.e. "5" in two cells and pattern 5 will be played twice.

And if you still don't get it, click on an order so it is selected, and press the 5 above the t (not numpad 5)

LPChip: Numpad numbers are assigned to the order list as well by default.

Ah okay... I wasn't sure and couldn't test it, and some of the keymaps don't support this, so I mentioned it just to be on the safe side.
